Scarlett's P.O.V:

Today was longer than I thought it would be. For most of the day I was thinking about Hayden. Would he be alright? But mostly I was confused about how the accident happen.

"Hello..?" Rosalie said while waving her hands in front of me. We were in class. I had spent most of the time thinking about Hayden.

I don't know why, but since the day he asked me out, he's all I've been thinking about. It's like he's the highlight of my day. Rosalie was still trying to catch my attention. This time, she tried blowing in my ear.

"Yeah?" I turned around to get a better look at her.

"Have you suddenly turned deaf?" she asked in a humorous tone. Although there was nothing funny about it.

"Who knew the innocent Rosalie had a sense of humour?" I said sarcastically while laughing quietly.

"Dude! You've been zoning out on me quiet a few times!" She complained. I let out a sigh an leaned on my seat, "What are you thinking about Scar? You seem quite interested in it.." Rosie asked while putting a hand on my shoulder.

"Nothing. Everything's fine.."

"And you're making it sound like it's not." She gave me an emotionless stare.

"Alright!" I raised my hands in the air as an act of surrender but gave out another sigh, "Hayden's been in an accident."

"Hayden what?!" She yelled. How did she know about Hayden?

"Dude keep quiet!" I hissed, "And how do you know about Hayden?"

"Scar! He's like the star of this college! Everyone talks about that guy." I think I was the only one who didn't know him.

"He's quiet famous you know. Not just in the college," She snorted, "His face is plastered on every magazine. Hayden this, Hayden that! It gets annoying." I just nodded and turned back.

It was lunch. I didn't have much money with me so I settled for an apple. Not that I wanted to eat. I was worried about Hayden. How was he right now? I was too coped up in my thoughts that I didn't see Rose coming towards me with a tray held firmly in her hands. I kept munching on my apple with a small frown on my face.

"What's with the frown?" Rose asked as she approached me.

"Nothing.."

She snorted, "Yeah, nothing! It's Hayden isn't it?"

I grunted and ate my apple quietly. She let out a sigh, "What's wrong?"
